That Link Is Illegal

buzzdecafe writes with a snippet from a Declan McCullagh piece on news.com today: "The University of California at San Diego has ordered a student organization to delete hyperlinks to an alleged terrorist Web site, citing the recently enacted USA Patriot Act. School administrators have told the group, called the Che Cafe Collective, that linking to a site supporting the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Columbia (FARC) would not be permitted because it violated federal law."

    I mean, when they are working their Wall Street or Investment Banking jobs in NYC in 1-4 years, they'll have a clean hair cut, wear a suit, etc. If the pictures surface, you won't be able to recognize them!

    The real joke will be if the picture comes out at a dinner party where they're gathered with their friends critizes the Democrats for blocking an initiative to put down those rebels because they have a mutual fund in their 401K that needs to exploit labor there...

    Don't get me wrong, I'm a conservative Republican, I just enjoy laughing at the others that were tree-hugging lefties 3 years ago... :)
